Word of God Words of Men: The Use and Abuse of Scripture

by A. Daniel Frankforter

Book Overview

Most Westerners are alert to challenges posed by Muslim fundamentalism, but few have given much thought to the implications of a similar phenomenon within the Christian communion. Literal readings of sacred texts are dangerous, for those who believe that they can quote the words of God implicitly claim the right to act with the authority of God.
